LSI Announces New First Circle Friends Ministry Opportunity Kara Ullestad, First Circle of Friends Coordinator 
Many of us know someone - a spouse, parent, grandparent or friend - who has been affected by early- to mid-stage memory loss. What if both caregivers and people with memory loss could join a new circle of friends that would enhance their quality of life?
LSI (Lutheran Services in Iowa), a shared ministry partner of the Iowa synods of the ELCA, is excited to announce LSI's First Circle Friends, a creative opportunity for churches to support their neighbors who may be facing these issues.

Stewardship Round Table Events
If you are thinking about a fall stewardship program, or if you are in a year round stewardship emphasis, May is a great time to bring a team of leaders to a "Stewardship Round Table: Options and Resources for New Stewardship Practices". Two new stewardship ministry resources will be introduced at these evening events. We invite you to attend - any of the four locations across the Southeastern Iowa Synod. In addition, stewardship leaders from area congregations will tell about the effectiveness of resources they have used in their contexts, and there will be time for you to share your best practices and ideas. The event is free so please join us!
